Dear Comrade - Dear Comrade chapter 41

Chapter 8. Swirling Republic (5)

Chapter 8. Swirling Republic (5)

“What question… ah, if that’s the case… maybe…?”

Jang Sung-taek, who had a bewildered expression on his face for a moment, patted his forehead as if he remembered something.

Just before leaving the conference room, he remembered the question that Jung-hwan had asked Kim Jong-il, who was giving him additional instructions, with the most respectful attitude.

– General, can I ask you one thing?

– Don’t worry, just do it. Is there anything you can’t ask your brother?

– Chief… So, are you okay with Abadi? I heard that after moving to the Jangsu Medical Center, the doctors and comrades are treating them with all their heart… As an unfaithful child, I am so worried about Abadi’s condition that I can’t sleep at all.

– Oh, yes, it could be. As a son, isn’t it natural? That’s right….

To Jung-hwan’s question, Kim Jong-il glanced at Jang Seong-taek, who was next to him, and answered in a tone that seemed to show great affection.

– You are in very bad shape. It’s hard for the comrades at the medical center to work hard, but now that I see you, I think this republic’s big star will soon be lost. As a son, my heart never broke.

– ……………!!! okay. Truly, the general’s concern is great.

– That’s right. I’m sorry. Anyway, for what I said now, don’t talk to anyone. The reason Abbadi became that way was not because of the mean maneuvers of the reactionaries at home and abroad, and the imperialists. If Abbadi’s sickness leaks out, Ganna’s bastards may say it’s this time and get up and try to shake the system of this republic. Do you know what I mean?

– Don’t worry. General. Even if the leader dies, if there is a successor like you, what do you have to worry about for the future of this republic?

– Hahaha…. Jeonghwan’s words are so pretty. Even if Abadi dies, he is the pillar that will lead the republic by following this older brother well. ha ha ha….

“Is that a lie? Then, the principal…”

“He’s a little hurt, but he’s good-natured. You can already receive treatment at the Mansumugang Research Center and return. Of course, if it’s the general’s will, it won’t be easy soon. Do you know what that means?”

Jang Seong-taek, the son-in-law of Kim Il-sung and close aide to Kim Jong-il for a long time, who has been at the center of power and has seen all kinds of conspiracy with his own eyes, explained this much, but he is not a human being that he does not know.

Junghwan’s prediction turned out to be true.

Jeonghwan uttered a word to hit Jang Seong-taek, who understood his meaning in an instant, his lips hardened and his face turned blue.

“Even so, my sidekick, what does it mean that you didn’t tell the truth even though comrade Zhang was by your side? It means that the general still hates comrade Jang Seong-taek.”

“…………”

“It seems that Comrade Jang was the first to hear about it…. Even after the revolutionary education, General Kim Jong-il still does not regard Comrade Jang as an aide. Isn’t it?”

“……Is that right, haha… I feel like this is a feeling, but wait.”

Although the tone was mumbled, the anger and disappointment that Jang Seong-taek must have felt was evident in it.

The fact that he had been so loyal to Kim Jong-il, but that he had returned in the end, turned into hatred by the combination of disappointment, anger, and the original dissatisfaction.

Jang Seong-taek, who was soon bowing his head, grinned his teeth and groaned.

“Heh heh… Ki Rae, even if I’m from the west of Zi Nui, I’m still a servant. When the owner tries to boil the hound, the dog bites the owner’s hand. All right, now I’m ready for a new owner.”

“If the event is successful, I will entrust the party to Comrade Jang. The cabinet and the military already have comrades in mind, so from now on, you can listen to my plan and put it into practice.”

“Hmm… the cabinet is what Kim Yong-geon, who was close to Jeong-hwan, will take over… Who is the military? As far as I know, Comrade Jeonghwan doesn’t have any connection with that side…”

Look at this, it’s already about to sit on my head.

Looking at Jang Sung-taek, who quickly shook his head as if when he was angry, and calculated the profit and loss, Jung-hwan was convinced that he should not trust this person as well.

Of course, until the big business is successful, you should not give too much information and try to eat it well.

“As I said before, you will soon find out. So let’s discuss the plan now.”

Over the next few days, Pyongyang was in turmoil.

Although it was partly due to the grieving of the citizens who lost their families in the Ryugyong Hotel accident that they wandered around Pyongyang like an invisible ghost (although it was not openly revealed), the citizens with a good sense noticed earlier that there was a more disturbing atmosphere.

The identity of the turbulent energy was the dissatisfaction with Kim Jong-il, which was floating around among Pyongyang citizens, even low-ranking military officers and party officials.

– The Ryugyong Hotel accident is the fault of Kim Jong-il.

– You forcefully ordered the construction, but the heavens punished you and you were punished. It happened because the spirits of the dead warriors cursed Kim Jong-il during construction.

– It is said that if General Kim Jong-il succeeds leader Kim Il-sung, the nation’s fortune will be in the air.

Of course, these rumors never came to the surface under the strict control of the social security agents, but no dictatorship can stop them.

The rumor did not subside, but rather spread out of Pyongyang, mixed with complaints that had existed before, but could not be said openly, (distributing rations decreasing day by day, the international situation, and anxiety over the hosting of the Olympic Games in South Korea). went out

One day in Pyongyang, with October approaching, Jeong-hwan greeted his mother Kim Myung-ae with great effort.

“I will go, mother.”

“Come on, take care. When the wind is cold like these days, it’s best to just keep your body low.”

“…………”

Seeing her telling her about her son, Jeonghwan kept his mouth shut in emotions that could not be expressed in words.

Even Kim Myung-ae, far away from the center of power, could not have been unaware of the unusual energy that permeated Pyongyang.

Besides, isn’t his son Jeonghwan involved in the Ryugyong Hotel business, which collapsed recently and injured many citizens?

For her, there was no choice but to worry that her only son, Jung-hwan, would suffer any harm.

“Just be careful with your mouth…. In the Republic, it’s best to keep your mouth shut unconditionally… OK?”

“…don’t worry, mother. Then I will go.”

Jeonghwan forced a smile on his mother’s face, full of concern for himself, and walked out of the apt.

It was also for security, but it was a wise choice not to open up about what would happen to her or what she was planning.

Jeonghwan’s ‘mother’ was too domestic to handle such a job.

‘Today.’

Jeonghwan muttered as he looked up at the hazy Pyongyang sky.

It’s finally today.

What has been planned and prepared for the past three years since returning is now bearing fruit.

Of course, if it fails…

‘Like my father, I have no connection with politics, well.’

Junghwan shrugged his shoulders and got into the car.

The destination was the Tin Palace.

President Kim Il-sung, the sun of the republic, has not been well since that morning.

Whether it was the aftereffects of an accident a while ago or just getting older, I had a particularly nauseous feeling of nausea and a headache.

Naturally, I had a check-up from the doctor who resides in the palace, but each time, the doctor’s answer was ‘There is nothing wrong. However, they made herbal medicines to protect the body and raised them.’ it was about

I thought that I was still in good health for my age, but suddenly my body got worse and I was wondering. There was an unexpected visitor.

“Sir… I… came here to report from Lesson 5.”

“Lesson 5? oh yes Come on in.”

Section 5 refers to Section 5 of the Workers’ Party of Korea, the female agents known as Joyjo.

Kim Jong-il, a son of deep filial piety, often chose the joy squad for the satisfaction of his energetic father even at an old age, but it seems that he sent a pretty female military officer to take care of his body again this time.

Naturally, this fact was a secret within the republic, so the female comrades who came to report to Kim Il-sung were always delivered in the back seat of the car with the windows painted black.

‘Jung-il is that guy, but Guman, Girai! After all, the only successor to me is him.’

After a while, the door opened, and Kim Il-sung tried to open his mouth to tell the female comrade who came in with a heavy body to start with the massage as usual.

But when he checked the people who came in, a completely different sound came out of his open mouth.

“Aren’t you… Seong-taek? I’m not coming with Kyung Hee, what kind of wind has blown here alone in the Joungung Palace? And aren’t you Jeonghwan?”

“That’s right. Recipient. We apologize for visiting without a message in advance. But there was an urgent matter, so I had no choice but to come to see you.”

The youngest of the two people who entered, Jeong-hwan, bowed his head to his father, Kim Il-sung.

First of all, entering the President’s Palace without being noticed by Kim Jong-il’s surveillance network is a success.

Although the 1st escort department in charge of escorting Kim Il-sung was almost annihilated, the security of the current president’s palace was taken over by the 2nd escort department, which is directly under the second son, Kim Jong-il.

Jang Seong-taek’s help was the key to breaking through the tighter security as a result.

– Five lessons per party, open the door.

‘It was fortunate that the person in charge of the Party Organizational Guidance Department who selects Division 5 was Jang Seong-taek. By the way, how long have you been playing? They say it’s class 5, so don’t even look at the back seat and open it right away?’

Jung-hwan internally chewed on Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il’s female history, but the complaint didn’t last long because it helped him in the end.

No matter what anyone says, today will be the worst day for Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il.

Especially for Kim Jong-il.

“What? urgent matter? What is it that my son and son-in-law have come out in such a morning like this? What the hell is that urgent matter?

“Sir, I and Comrade Jang here recently came here to capture evidence of a serious treason in the Republic and give a direct report. That act of treason is an attempt to assassinate the supreme dignity of this republic, the leader .”
